The APS Undergraduate Summer Research Fellowships
program will fund up to 24 fellowships during the summer of 2009. These
fellowships are to support full-time undergraduate students to work in the
laboratory of an established investigator. The intent of this program is to
excite and encourage students to pursue a career as a basic research
scientist. Faculty sponsors/advisors must be active members of the APS in
good standing.
| These Fellowships provide: |
 |
$4,000 summer stipend to the student (10 weeks support) |
|
|
$300 grant to the faculty sponsor/advisor |
|
|
up to $1,300 travel award/reimbursement to the student
so that he/she may attend and present their data at the APS annual
meeting (Experimental Biology 2010) or a 2010 APS fall Conference. |
